That was a lot closer than it should have been for the Pats.

Two missed field goals is the reason for that, otherwise the defense did an ok job.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

I'm no pats fan by any means but it's a joke that a situation where a player deliberately goes to make contact with the helmet results in him walking away fine and the other player having his season ended.

There is a lot of absurdness in this game. I agree

That was what I was getting at. I thought the d played well after giving up that td run.

[dave 5516]

Looks like a majority of the Texans took a knee.

The defense has improved vastlly in the last couple of weeks. We go into the bye, 6-2, some time to recover, and hopefully get a win in Denver as they are shite currently.

Miller dislocated-knee-td for Bears.

Chalked off by the officials.

Why was that ruled incomplete?

I think 6-2 is definitely something better than I expected going into the bye week as I had us at 5-3 (before the falcons game) but the defense really improved last week and whilst it is a big worry still a two week break should give them a chance to regroup.

The Eagles look very very good. Scarily good. But have they had any real tough tests yet?

They had a good win against a decent Panthers but you certainly could argue they've also lost to the only good team they've played.

They're playing good ball though in fairness.

Broncos, Cowboys and Seahawks in the next few weeks should tell us more. I do have a few quid on them at 30/1 so hopefully they're legit.

Make of this what you will

[classycarra]

Seahawks can't catch (Baldwin aside) as soon as I switch them on.

[Zend...en the clowns]

Hopkins is insane.

[voodoo ray]

so much for seattle's defence.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

D. Watson is a hell of a QB, Houston finally got a quarterback

[voodoo ray]

cousins tries to throw an interception, so does on the next play.

[voodoo ray]

or not. it gets overturned.

[Zend...en the clowns]

What a game and what a drive from the Seahawks.

Neither team deserves to lose.

Get in! As you say though, really enjoyable game.

[voodoo ray]

crazy end to a game.

[Zend...en the clowns]

Unbelievable that the Seattle defense gave up 38 points.

Even more unbelievable that there offense managed to put 41 on the board.

Haha.

Expect a Wilson/Watson love in now

[KillieRed]

Raiders defensive backs suck...stop me if you've heard me before...but if the offense keeps going three and out/turning the ball over you have to feel a bit sorry for them. I turned the game off after the third turnover. I love Jalen Richard but he has to be relieved of PR duties, two muffed punts in two games and he still got to go back for the next one?!? No thanks.

The OC has to be questioned for his play calling, even Ice-T was calling him out for his fascination with the screen plays. Everyone knows we play better running downhill and throwing it medium/deep.

Greg Papa said on twitter that questions have to be asked about D.Carr`s lack of production in cold/wet weather situations.

This was one game where Lynch would have been useful, but the league in it`s infinite wisdom added an extra games suspension for his brutal assault on the ref.

Season over IMHO, will be very lucky to make 8-8.

[LFC_1981]

Only good game this week was Seahawks/Texans all the rest were meh this week.

From Schefter:

Vascular surgeons are trying to save Bears TE Zach Miller's leg, not just his career, per @mortreport.

Artery damage to his leg as well as triple ligament tear. Sounds horrific.

[Statto Red]

At least the London game was competitive until the mid 4th quarter, than the previous 3 blowout London games, can see the Browns going 0-16, could well be 2, 0-16 teams this season with 49ers being bad.

Jeez, that`s terrible. He was a genuinely great player for us, never had as TE as good since he left.


I hope he recovers.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

We've traded Garapolo to the 49ers. wtf...

[Daniel Cabbaggio]

Kap to pats??

[Buggy Eyes Alfredo]

.

Garapolo

Like a velvet blanket dragged through the rose thorns. goodbye to the so-called brady benefactor.

[Beav]

We've traded Garapolo to the 49ers. wtf...

TEN MORE YEARS OF BRADY LED SUPERBOWL WINS.

[Ray K]

I think the Pats might regret this for two reasons: 1. Big drop in handsomeness now that Handsome Jimmy has left the building, and 2. Do they really expect Brady to get through 8 games + playoffs and 2018 season completely unscathed?  I know he drinks magical water and shit, but come on?


Zeke's suspension in confirmed by the federal judge. He's out until week 15.

[Rob K]

Jay Ajayi traded to the Eagles for a 4th round pick.

[Mr F]

That Jags defence just got even better with the acquisition of Dareus from the Bills 

[Statto Red]

Jay Ajayi traded to the Eagles for a 4th round pick.

On the face of it that's a steel for the Eagles, however doesn't Ajayi have issues with a dodgy knee?

[Zend...en the clowns]

Jay Ajayi traded to the Eagles for a 4th round pick.

Just broke me neck to come in and say that.

Jesus that's massive for the Eagles.

[Ray K]

Simon Clancy saying the Fins want to trade Jarvis Landry too.  Their offense, which was trash, now got even trashier.

@RapSheet
Not trade deadline, but… #Broncos are mulling a QB change & could hand the ball to Brock Osweiler. Paxton Lynch has only practiced 3 times.


God, this might be the saddest tweet I've ever seen. 

[Something Worse]

That's a total give-up move by the Dolphins, which seems premature.

[LFC_1981]

Ahahahaha hahahaha classic Miami Dolphins. WHAT THE FUCK a 4th rounder, might as well give him away.

[LFC_1981]

Go on might as well give away Landry to Giants so he’s with his best mate Beckham.
